Description Archarus, another character whose name didn't change. The design is pretty much the same as the original, but more muscular and minus the mini Rhamphorynchus tail.

I havn't got Archarus' story down pat. The original idea was that the pterosaur-like race of Rakasians lived up in the mountains away from everyone else and usually had their own seperate agenda. Archarus was like one of their leaders (or something) and came down to help prevent Nerghal from being freed because, even though his kind generally doesn't give a rat's ass about what happens to the rest of the world, he knows that Nerghal wouldn't be selective about who he destroys. I suppose I could keep that story but I'm not 100% sure if I like it.

Archarus' design is a more anthropoid version of Pteranodon.

Nice design, I like the white/gray coloration. Helps keep him from being called a Rodan clone.

Yeah, I might wind up using one of the alternates for his main skin from now on. I think red is too common a color with Pterosaur creatures, and like you said it definitely brings Rodan to mind. Plus there are some other characters who are red also, so it'd help broaden the color schemes.

I like this guys design, expecially the grey one. The story seems to fit him, too-sort of an anti-hero to everyone but his own people.

I love the underbite he's got going.

Thanks! I think the underbite really defines him, he'd be pretty plain without it IMO.
